They don't support Israel committing terrorism and land invasions.. big difference between not liking jews and supporting terrorists.
Why didn't you put Rashida Tlaib or Ilhan Omar? They don't like Jews and support terrorists that don't like Jews.

There’s a ton of conspiracy for sure but the underlying feeling of persecution is understandable.
There’s a ton of conspiracy for sure but the underlying feeling of persecution is understandable. It’s become culturally acceptable to demonize people based on skin color. Happens every day in politics, the media, here on this forum... There’s not a solution, it’s just the way society is in 2019. Social media and the internet exacerbates it and makes it a global phenomenom.
I’m not defending this POS at all and hope he rots in prison for the rest of his life.

I very much disagree that there is nothing we can do about the underlying issues. Those issues historically had been getting better. That means there is something that happened during those times.
You fight back against conspiracy through discussion and reason. You will not get a win every time, but the long run you will. Look at the flat earth guys that spend a ton of money testing flat earth to be proved wrong.
The 'persecution' that he's complaining about is that it has become culturally UNacceptable to demonize people based on skin color. That's a bad thing for white supremacists or other racist trash, whose entire identity is built based upon demonizing people based on skin color. They feel persecuted because when they get shamed when they do that, and because of that identity thing, that leads them to falsely believe that they were victims of racism.Bullshit. The notion that white people are persecuted in New Zealand or the US is alt-right garbage.
What did Australia do that caused this guy to go to another country to shoot up mosques? What made mass murder more difficult there?
The people came to their senses and created legislation that makes it much more difficult.What did Australia do that caused this guy to go to another country to shoot up mosques? What made mass murder more difficult there?

I'm listening. What has changed? Why are they getting worse all of a sudden?
The answer is because there has always been a chorus of voices shouting lots of different things, most of the time we keep the problematic voices small, but recently we gave a bullhorn to a particularly shitty one. Society reflects that voices we amplify.
Again, that does not disagree with what I have said. What I am pushing back against is Trump being seen as the majority of the issue here, when clearly he should not be. We have larger underlying problems not only here in the US, but, around the world. I do not see any real focus on those issues, but instead the focus is on the symbols.
So while removing symbols needs to happen, I worry that people will think that once they are gone all is solved. Much like electing Obama made people complacent to many issues.

I think it does disagree with what you said, if only with the word 'far' in your earlier post.
I do, I think, agree with your final sentences here.
Isn't that a bit of a leap-of-faith? There are many past occasions when we did not achieve a 'win' and the results of that were beyond catastrophic.
That’s not true
Like I said, it's a bad thing for white supremacists or other racist trash, whose entire identity is built based upon demonizing people based on skin color. They feel horribly persecuted because they can't speak "The Truth" about the "inferiority" of other races. Which is why they claim to be victims of racism even when it's other whites condemning their racism.That’s not true
What is your solution to this real world problem? Constantly pointing out that Trump isn't the entire problem gets us nowhere.
You see, we can do something about Trump. And Trump clearly is contributing to this problem. We can't do anything about Islamophobes and other hate mongers in foreign countries. Except that some of them may well be inspired by Trump. Like this one.
